US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez raised concerns over the impact of data centre construction on local water supplies during a public hearing, questioning Environmental Protection Agency official Jessica Kramer about reports from residents in Morgan County.
Families living near a Meta data centre site say their water turned dirty and unsafe after heavy construction began, including forest clearing and blasting, forcing many to rely on bottled water for daily use. Residents have also reported low water pressure and damage to home appliances due to sediment entering the system.
